Chapter 6 – He Looks Like A Cryer
“Max was the mastermind behind this so I can’t take credit for it.” Bette admitted. “But you’re my sister, and I love you, and this is your passion. It’s time to take it back, and I want to help you.” She smiled warmly at her sister who brought her in for a tight hug.
“I love you too, Baby Sis.” Kit squeezed her younger sister with tears in her eyes. “Now if you can put this much energy into your love life, maybe you can get yourself a good woman to take care of you as well as you take care of me, then all my prayers will be answered.” She whispered in Bette’s ear.
“Kit, I don’t need anyone to take care of me. I’ve got my job and I’ve got you guys to keep me too busy to even notice a woman, let alone find time for a relationship with one.” Bette explained.
“Well then, maybe you can meet one at the show and she can come on tour with us to keep you company.” Kit joked.
“I don’t think I’ll be dating any of your groupies, Kit. That’s a job strictly reserved for your band members.”
The rest of the band thanked Max with high-fives and fist bumps as he gave them the passwords to each account so they could update whenever they wanted.
“Max and I have one more surprise for you guys. Go ahead, tell ‘em Max.”
“Well, Marina is going to let us set up webcams at the Planet during your performance and for the same price as the cover charge, people can access the show by streaming it live.” Max explained. “We’re gonna put a link on each site so it will direct them to make a payment to access the stream link.”
“Okay, you guys are way too tech-savvy for me.” Kit said. “So show me how to do this Twittertube business.”
For the next hour, the group of friends took turns updating their social media administrative controls and added their own personal pages as friends.

Tina’s Driveway
“I just don’t understand, Tina. I mean, I thought we were getting along great.” Eric pleaded on the front porch of Tina’s house. The gorgeous blonde had earlier rejected his marriage proposal at a restaurant in Beverly Hills. “I can see a future with you.”

Please keep in mind, I started this story in December of 2009. Facebook was slowly taking over the MySpace craze, Twitter was still in its infantile stages and not yet utilized by morons that are currently running my country; Soundcloud was still a very new platform and hadn’t even reached 1 million users until 6 months later. These days, if you start a band, it should be a no-brainer that you would promote yourself on all of these platforms (including YouTube).
But as I stated in my comment on the first chapter, the music business has evolved since I began this tale. And it continues to evolve as technology changes at a much faster rate than it used to 15-20 years ago. I’m sure this story will be outdated by this time next year lol.
This will be the final posting for this week. I am back home after a few hours on the road with (surprisingly) minimal holiday traffic. Now watching the Sunday night football game and relaxing before going back to work after a full week off. I want to thank everyone who has reached out so far to let me know that you are reading this book again. It’s nice that so many of you have enjoyed this story that I dreamed up so long ago.
I look forward to posting another 5-6 chapters next week that covers the entire scene at Hit. Have a great week everyone!
Cheers,
MeLL

Hey MeLL,
We should thank you for coming back with this incredible story!
Man, Eric is such a baby and think that just because they love music that that is enough base to get married?!
I am looking forward to the next chapters!
Have a great week!

“Tina Turner” – yes Tina, you definitely don’t need last name like that. Porter much better:)

Thanks for this multi-chapter-treat, MeLL!
It’s astonishing how normal those things like self-promoting through YouTube and payed life streaming etc. read nowadays. When I read this the first time a few years ago the life feed that Max wanted to set up seemed like the coolest thing to do at that time, Time flies, huh?
Btw I’m still laughing at Kit Potter and the Sprouts! How did you come up with that? Just great! :-D
And “Tina Turner”? Hilarious! Why didn’t any of the screen writers came up with a comment like that in the show?
Enjoy your week too
cheers
